When trying to import data from an Excel .CSV file, I get the pop-up message "The file doesn’t include any valid password data. Pick another file"

Hi, if you export your currently saved logins to a CSV file and compare, are the columns in the same order in your Excel CSV file?

In case of issues with importing the CSV file, check the header line and make sure you have at least the "url" and "username" and "password" columns as those are mandatory. The .csv file you want to import should follow a specific structure and "url","username","password" are mandatory and each field should be enclosed in quotes.

If there are problems with importing the CSV file, create a new login via the plus icon in the Password Manager (about:logins) and export the logins to a CSV file to get an example of the format of the CSV file. "url","username","password","httpRealm","formActionOrigin","guid","timeCreated","timeLastUsed","timePasswordChanged"
